Features

From "I read that somewhere" to "here's the source."

Askback is one loop: capture what matters, let it accumulate, then ask, create, and listen. Every feature below serves that loop. Nothing else made the cut.

Capture

Save in two seconds, from anywhere

  • Highlight any text on any page — one click and it's saved with the source attached
  • Right-click save, full-page save, or paste any URL — it all works
  • Everything lands in your inbox first — file it later, or never

100 saves/month free. Unlimited on Premium.

YouTube & PDFs

Videos transcribed. Documents searchable.

  • Save a YouTube video — transcript pulled automatically, summarized with timestamps
  • Upload PDFs and papers — they become as searchable and answerable as everything else
  • Ask the video questions. Search inside the PDF. It's all part of your library.

PDFs up to 10MB free, 50MB on Premium.

Knowledge Base

One library. Visible. Growing.

  • One searchable library — not scattered notebooks or per-project silos
  • Auto-summarized on save, organized into collections when you want structure
  • Grows more valuable every week — your answers get better as it compounds

Unlimited collections on every plan.

Chat

Ask questions. Get cited answers.

  • Ask in plain English — answers come from your sources only, every claim cited
  • Grounded, not guessing — if your library doesn't contain it, Askback says so
  • Scope it down — chat with one collection, one PDF, or the page you're reading now

50 questions/day free. Unlimited on Premium.

Reports

Turn your reading into a cited document

  • Point it at a collection — get executive summary, analysis, conclusions
  • Choose length, add a focus topic, every section cites its sources
  • Download the styled PDF and send it to someone — it looks professional

5 free reports/month. Unlimited on Premium.

Listen

Your library, read aloud

  • Any clip, note, or chat answer — spoken in natural, high-quality voices
  • Turn a long save into a walk-time listen — commute with your research
  • 23 voices to choose from — find the one that matches how you think

  • Web app — full dashboard in the browser, same library.
  • Mobile capture — save from your phone.
